Thanks! ^^

Yesterday, I updated the namespaces and changed the default "user's Wiki" to "Ecks Dee WikiFarm", so the WikiFarm will be definitely be called the Ecks Dee WikiFarm.

As for the link, I don't know yet. But if it's possible, it will be called something with ecks-dee.wikifarm or ecks-dee-wikifarm in its name.

Hi!

There is still lots of things going on over at my job project, but I now have enough time to work on the new wikifarm every once in awhile.

Yesterday, I also tested some things, got angry at Linux when they didn't work and restored the virtual machine snapshots and then, at some point, they did work, but I still don't know, why they didn't work in the first place. XD

Now, I not only migrated various help pages to the new namespace, but also installed the parser functions, switch, tabber and video embed functions.

So far, I only tested the tabbers and video embedding, but these work fine.

I couldn't add infoboxes, as they were unstable and I couldn't add polls, because the link to the file server, that provides the poll feature didn't work and sent me to a blank page.

So right now, the wikifarm is using my own custom infoboxes, which I made from wikitables. Though, I am going to modify them by testing the parser functions and switches with them, so that we won't need different revisions of the same template for, for example, characters, that have different voice actors or heights listed or not listed.

I am still very happy about how things turned out in the end, because now I can properly migrate most pages and not just add dummy versions.

Just the thing with the polls is a mess. Installing the poll feature wouldn't be too difficult, but the absence of the files makes installing them impossible. After all, I can't install nothing and end up with something. XD

Oh! And I used Ben's video to test the video embedding over at the Ecks Dee WikiFarm:
